Last song of the night for the clean up crew at a church in St Paul, MN. Epiphany moment for me to hear every note so clearly in a church basement instead of elsewhere. Seriously soulful moment to never forget. Choir of angels, our future! 💕
I knew all the people were going to come out when I made a statement on UA-cam. You are all correct, to a certain extent. If the man has so much talent, and, creativity, why, could he not maintain discipline with his actions in the way he thinks. I'm a 100% heterosexual male and love women of all shapes and sizes to no extent, but, he made way more money than me, and I still had more sense to refrain. People are going to come out and say that all that money made him crazy, no, it did not. He was a sexual deviant to begin with. There's a line from one of the best movies ever called the Bronx Tale. It quotes that there is nothing sadder in life then wasted Talent. The man is 46 years old and he's done for life. The only thing that all that money and millions of dollars in his bank account is going to get him is a lot of soups from the commissary and free phone calls. Because he's going to federal prison hard workers in the world like myself, our tax dollars will be paying for him to sit Kush. In no way, was I being racist sexist or bigoted in any way. The same goes for sports players. You are given a gift from the Lord above to be able to perform, play, or act and make millions. This is nothing but 100% pure f***** up thinking.
This song is from the point of view of batman. It's actually genius. He sees what Gotham should be, not what it is. He wants Gotham to be a place that is safe and full of love. Probably the best superhero song ever written and shows a side of batman that few people see. Bruce Wayne is driven by the hope that things can eventually get better.
IM GONNA SAY THIS TO U PERSONALLY- NO ONE AND I MEAN NO ONE COULDVE SAID THAT BETTER THAN U! YOU ACTUALLY BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES WITH THAT- THAT GIFT U GAVE ME- FINER THAN ANYTHING ELSE- WISDOM, AND NOTHING ELSE CAN BE COMPARED TO IT!!!!!!!!!!!
A CITY OF JUSTICE, A CITY OF LOVE- A CITY OF PEACE FOR EVERYONE OF US- WE ALL NEED IT, CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT IT- GOTHAM CITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND ITS NOT PROBABLY THE BEST SUPERHERO SONG EVER WRITTEN- IT IS- BECAUSE IT ABOUT THE SIDE OF HIM THAT PEOPLE DO SEE- THIS IS THE SIDE THAT DRIVES HIM TO GO OUT EACH AND EVERY NIGHT AND FIGHT FOR THE INNOCENT, DELIVER VENGANCE UPON THE WICKED, AND GUIDE THE CITY FROM THE DARKNESS OF THE NIGHT, FROM WHICH THE WICKED FIND REFUGE, AND INTO THE SANCTITY AND SALVATION OF THE DAYLIGHT- ITS MY CITY, YOUR CITY, HIS CITY, THEIR CITY, OUR CITY- NOW AND FOREVERMORE BECAUSE OF HIM- A SELFLESS AND SILENT GUARDIAN! A WATCHFUL PROTECTOR! A RIGHTEOUS CRUSADER OF JUSTICE! A VIRTUOUS WARRIOR!- THE DARK KNIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HE SANG THIS SONG WITH THE SAME LEVEL OF CONVICTION THAT IS THE SOURCE OF THE DRIVE OF THE VERY INDIVIDUAL WHO SUITS UP EACH AND EVERY NIGHT AS HE GOES TO WAR FOR THE CITY HE LOVES MORE DEARLY THAN HIMSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!
I remember when I was 9 years old, singing this song in the car on my way to school. 20 years later, I still got shivers. Robert is definitely the King of Rnb
Yes.It was one of those songs.I was in my twenties, 230lb playing football and lift weights back when this came out.I would sing this with my toddler daughter watching her clap and sing through my rearview mirror and would tear up seeing her joy when this song came on.🤧🥺
And I gotta say, the 90s was the hottest decade for incredible cinematic soundtracks. Even if a film sucked you could always count on a timeless soundtrack
we all blame R Kelly for his action , but the truth of the matter is what type of parents send their kids of to see him . its all about money the parents seen
Every young entertainer should learn this, your team could be those to bring you down. They'll be the pimps arranging all the hookups in the name of fun. Be careful of those in your team. They'll supply you the coke, the girls, the boys and take your money. They'll leave you fried.
He was in no way the king of R/B. Maybe, he was in his own mind, but, any person who grew up around R/B music and knows anything about it. Marvin Gaye was the king, followed by, Smokey Robbinson, Barry White.
I randomly heard this song on radio and I busted to tears because I was flooded with memories of my childhood.most especially loved ones that have passed 😭 😢.
I lost every person I love then the worse was finding a great friend who loved me like a Son dead in the morning in bed with only me and him in the house
@@aliyukabir7201 it's hard but I'm trying not to mourn his death but celebrate the time I was blessed with to live and share unforgettable memories with him.
THAT IT IS AND HERE IS WHY-HE SANG THIS SONG WITH THE SAME LEVEL OF CONVICTION THAT IS THE SOURCE OF THE DRIVE OF THE VERY INDIVIDUAL WHO SUITS UP EACH AND EVERY NIGHT AS HE GOES TO WAR FOR THE CITY HE LOVES MORE DEARLY THAN HIMSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!
AND U CAN HEAR IT AS U LISTEN TO THE CHORUS- HOW JUST WITHIN THE CHORUS ITSELF, HOW THE ENTIRE SONG CAN BE FOUND, AND SUMMED UP, AND CAPTIVATED BY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He has always showed love to the state which he is from the choir that is singing is the Chicago Mass Choir...they visit my church O yess they can sing without music n they sang in his song the world Greatest...
From my university days till now 2024 July still listening to this nice piece of song . Robert Kelly may the grace of the Lord be with him as we're hoping for the best for him.
Batman and Robin may not have been the best of all time but it had its moments ......certainly the Batman franchise of the 90s had great soundtracks you had prince,seal,jewel,r Kelly and many more
It's one thing to say you are willing to separate what he did from his music and that you still enjoy his music, but to say that you don't care is absolutely ridiculous. The day you're a victim of something horrible, you won't expect people to say they don't care what happened to you and then celebrate the perpetrator.
I ain't gonna be the one to cast the first stone cause I'm also a sinner, let's leave the judging to The Most High God, let's love one another. I'm proud of you Kellz, prison doors won't take away the talent that God blessed you with ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
To think this man couldn’t even read at an adult level and he paints a visual so beautifully with his words. True talent regardless of his personal life.
This song gets pretty freaking sad if you think of it as being sung from Batman's point of view... He's not saying that Gotham IS a city of peace, love, etc. He's saying that he's "Looking over the skyline of the city" and seeing "quiet nights in the midst of crime", "children drowning in their tears", happiness followed closely by sorrow, and other awful things, and that the people need a nicer place to live, which, again, if it's from Batman's PoV, he's trying to turn Gotham City into. Come to think of it, this actually makes it all the more emotional when he says "...(we need) a place where everyone can have a hero... _Even me..._"
+CoriSparks CorkiSparks I took a long time to process and review your comment. I came to one conclusion. I really fucking hate you. It's nothing personal. You just really tried to make sense of a nonsensical song in this horrendous movie. The only enjoyment gained from this film isn't drowning in your tears from sorrow, it's from laughter. Just like this song. I hope you have a good day. :]
+CoriSparks You're right. It's about looking over a broken world, and desperately wanting it to be a better place. And that ideal "better place" being some thing that is needed, something to reach for. Kind of what batman is fighting for. Batman and Robin didn't go over too well, but without a doubt, R. Kelly won his part of the battle with this song.
Undeniably a masterpiece. What he did and now is going through won't make me stop listening to Gotham city, coz it's the place we need go to when faced with life's odds n challenges.
Thank you You Tube for not banning him, looked all over but cudnt find this, his actions dont mean he ddnt give use ageless music and this here is just pure gold
@@arlobailey7355i dont think anyone can really be sure of the facts in rkellys cases but him and the people accusing him . theres too many interests pecuniary and otherwise for anyone else to know what really transpired. are you aware that there are cultures that girls as young as 13 can get married ? Us laws are written by men and are therefore not beyond reproach. So someone decided 18 is the age of consent . that is a mans law not the 10 commandments . know that !
I am. My dad used to play this, it just brings back so many of my childhood memories me and him riding in the car, back then I didn't know that this song came off the soundtrack.

Agreed
Très bien dit. C'est important de comprendre cela et je partage votre point de vue.

Thank you brudda
Somewhere on a rooftop Batman listens to this before he goes out on night patrol. Awesome.
All of the Bat-fam!
All I can say is..... wow
Love it!!
R Kelly makes Gotham sound like it's a good city apart from it being a city of crime & corruption.
This comment made me laugh so much
Y'all can hate this man for his actions but you can never hate him for his music
True
Yeah, I have learned to only see artists for their art, not as role models.
Yes I agree 👍💯 with you on that one, I'm team R.kelly All the way 💯👍

@Refined Gentleman this is the best comment. Explained perfectly.
I am glad that I was born the era of R Kelly.... 90s mmmm still listening in 2022...
I was in high school when this was out I LOVED this song and I'm not a fan but this was so beautiful such a damn shame he didn't get help😢
My high school music.
Fun Fact, This music video was filmed and recorded in Wayne Manor one night while batman was out on patrol.
One of the best songs ever produced.
Year 2020 I'm still in, who else?Amazing R Kelly

You Can't keep people away from classics. It's a master piece
People will try to keep this piece of shit away because this guy is pedro
He is a real creep
R Kelly as a singer it is a godwritter.he is simple unbelievable
He is r Kelly king or rb
Musically R. Kelly is absolutely incredible. Has created some of my all-time favorite songs.
Strong Facts!
He's earned the right to pee an anyone he wants.

Timeless, incredible, unmistakable king of R and B.
His sense of melody and vocal arrangement just blows my mind, and he executes it flawlessly.

His real life horrific actions doesn’t change the fact that he made timeless music.
indeed
His timeless music also doesn't excuse his real life actions.
anjelheaven If that’s what you think I’m saying then you missed my point
100%

We're all fighting our own battles. His music, voice and talent is undeniable.
That's right song is relevant today
If michael jackson people stillnlpve him why must we not listen to r kelly
We al deserve a sec chance n women throw themselves n call it rape
@@vishareddyyes but there’s a difference in women crying rape for attention and money and R. Kelly peeing on little girls 😕😕
I will always love the R..
Still one of the greatest hits of all time ❤
A message to the future generations:
No matter what happens, do not let this song die.

Ok😊
I agree
Never, R kelly is a legend.
Amen
Never
And I gotta say, the 90s was the hottest decade for incredible cinematic soundtracks. Even if a film sucked you could always count on a timeless soundtrack
You'll get no argument from me
Yea man that's so true. When I was a kid I had multiple movie soundtracks that were fire. I can't run of one recent soundtrack I'd like.
I seconded that. Lol
Agreed
End of Days, Spawn, Empire records, Batman Forever, Jerry Maguire are just a few of my favorites from that era
The only person who can make a ballad about Gotham City. Although this was about a fictional city it was inspirational.
Who’s here in 2024??
Regardless of what this man done in his life he still remains a icon a legend of serving hits🔥
I am imperfect so that means I am incapable of judging anyone. This man is talented,that's what I appreciate.thanks for the music R.Kelly.
Y'all Can Hate Kellz For His Actions, But You Can NEVER Hate Him For The Music 💯
we all blame R Kelly for his action , but the truth of the matter is what type of parents send their kids of to see him . its all about money the parents seen
The parents are just as guilty

Simply the greatest r and b singer of all times
Yes!!
Agreed
@@SJ20KGAMING ngoo
Absolutely agree! Despite the troubles in his personal life, I can't deny that the man can sing. Such a shame he ruined his career and reputation.
A great human trafficker too lol
Show me a perfect person on earth. R. Kelly’s voice and songs are truly a blessing from God. 🥲🙏
This song lives in my head rent free
I 100% agree. The words, the beat, just everything about this song.
Still the king of r&b u can break him but u cant take his God given gift away from him...hit the like button if you know what am talkin about
You mean to abuse young woman?
He was in no way the king of R/B. Maybe, he was in his own mind, but, any person who grew up around R/B music and knows anything about it. Marvin Gaye was the king, followed by, Smokey Robbinson, Barry White.
He broke himself, and broke many other lives along the way.
Break him?? He raped kids and tortured countless women 🤦♂️ so if a guy has talent he gets a pass huh? You are a part of the problem.

R. Kelly is an asset and a little bit of a liability that one cannot resist not to listen to his incredible songs
e-Fashion World so damn true!!
He is very much a liability who wasted his talent coz of letting his penis control him... What a pity
This is so beautiful, u so right bro
If he had just been a little bit more of a decent human he'd still be making music and touring right now. Such a damn shame
That's a business language right there
Love u Kells. You touched the lives of everyone, some way or the other. Your music is legendary and will forever live on
I’ve been listening to his music back in the 90’s. I don’t care about what he did. I will always love his music forever.
Me too ✨
I’m sure there are SOME people that care what he did… specifically the underage victims and their families. But yes, he was a hell of a singer.
It's one thing to say you are willing to separate what he did from his music and that you still enjoy his music, but to say that you don't care is absolutely ridiculous.
The day you're a victim of something horrible, you won't expect people to say they don't care what happened to you and then celebrate the perpetrator.

I wonder how R. Kelly always come up with all his underrated, undeniable and the best of the best songs.
There is no way anyone could tell me not to listen to such great music that brings such hapinness. Greatest R & B singer ever...
I think this is the only person who has a sense of what music is unlike the other thugs
The modern King of RnB.....A voice-FULL musical genius & masterpiece, emobodied in 1 human.
This man is unmatched when it comes to music. Its like he was only releasing hits every damn time.
Always loved this song! First time I heard it in 1997! Still adore it!!!
Oooh my god!!
Really!! I didnt know it came out in 1997. I was 1 years old
They need to remaster this video. We can't let such quality just fade away like this!!

I’m still crazy about his music, he was the best. I hope he prayed for forgiveness, to those he hurt and mostly to God. He remains the best singer 🙏🏽
Despite all the drama you can't kill this guy's talent
Really i swear
depuis congo kinshasa on t aime brot
Another great song by the greatest artist of all time R Kelly.
I get goosebumps every time I listen to this song. This man is a genius, and I wonder what great things he could have done with Aaliyah.
He did a lot of things with Aaliyah
You mean like having sex with her when she was 13? 🤔
@@arlobailey7355i dont think anyone can really be sure of the facts in rkellys cases but him and the people accusing him . theres too many interests pecuniary and otherwise for anyone else to know what really transpired. are you aware that there are cultures that girls as young as 13 can get married ? Us laws are written by men and are therefore not beyond reproach. So someone decided 18 is the age of consent . that is a mans law not the 10 commandments . know that !
Lazola Booi this song brings me to tears. He’s powerful
R Kelly thank you for this soft music you just know how to heal a person may GOD BLESS YOU BROTHER🙏🙏🙏
Amazing💝💝💝💝💝💕💕💖💖
Goose bumps. Kelly is truely a phenomenal artist.
What if he pissed on your childs face?
Whose here in 2019?!
I am. My dad used to play this, it just brings back so many of my childhood memories me and him riding in the car, back then I didn't know that this song came off the soundtrack.

Lamonte Bell Me! This is an amazing tearjerker of a song, and I’ve always loved it!
Innocent until PROVEN guilty!!!!

Minouche Jean Well, that’s not gonna stop me loving this song. It’s still a solid contribution to the music world, and the message in it is deep!
He is an outstanding artist. 2023 and hearing this song still has the same effect on me. One of his best and timeless!
Great musician Rkelly 👌
